Reviews

'a chunky hardback packed with good illustrative photographs - a great gift for beginner cooks and students who want to cook well for themselves.' Irish Examiner, 1 October 2010 'One of the most heavily illustrated cookbooks of all time - Nothing's left to chance and everything is beautifully explained - It could just be the best book for novice cooks ever.' Shannon Denny, Westside, October 2010 'The kind of book that should be on standby in every kitchen.' Tesco Real Food, October 2010 'Jane Hornby likes to think of a recipe as a story with a beginning, middle and happy ending, and her aim in her new book [ - ] is to show her readers how to produce their own happy endings every time.'
